Wow, Ryuki and Zero-One! I now feel kind of bad I watched Zero-One with fansubs just recently. Neither show is my favorite, but both are solid efforts, and being able to have more KR on physical media is *extremely* exciting to me. I mean seriously, this is long overdue. We only have V3 and The First predating this.
I do feel bad for the European folks though, but I’m sure the subs will still be around somewhere for those that need them. I feel angrier at the fact civilization has trapped itself in a hell of DRM-heavy, region locked electronics than I do at poor Shout Factory!

So Zero One blu ray is awesome, but it's understandable to be upset if you are not a US based person. Also it is 2021, you should have something that can play blu rays by now, blu ray players are not that expensive.
I can't say I'm happy about more TokuShoutsu, I was hoping they could go to an actual normal streaming site. I don't expect Netflix, but at least Crunchyroll maybe? Just something beyond a live TV network or Tubi. I don't want to complain too much, I am grateful. It just isn't what I would have preferred. |

Of course optimistically I'm just hoping for something with Saber and the third Reiwa Rider. |

I hate they had to skip Agito because Toei sold those rights to Toku (I hope it was a short contract at least). Still, finally an excuse for me to finish Zero-One once it's added. EDIT: You can also find almost all of their stuff on the Shout Factory TV streaming site. Last edited by DaikaijuSokogeki01; 04-03-2021 at 11:56 PM.. |

Honestly with Funimation there's definitely a big chance that Rider will gain more and more traction in the west.
Especially if say... we decide to just plop the eventual Fuuto PI anime onto Toonami. That would definitely boost it up by a lot in terms of visibility. |

Thinking about it, these are possibly two of the most interesting seasons they could have chosen in terms of what they'll do with subs.
Ryuki is a series where the original subs created something that western fandom heavily associates with a character - Asakura Ouja's "I'm vexed..." - even though that's not entirely accurate to the original script. Zero-One, meanwhile, has a main character who does jokes and wordplay every two seconds. I remember near the start of this show people were comparing different subgroups and finding it interesting how differently different groups had translates the same joke. Basically, it'll be interesting to see what the official subs do with this material!

I just hope that Zero-One getting a physical release means that physical versions of KR-1 and Kuuga aren't far behind.

Oh, one more interesting thing about Ryuki that some others pointed out to me -- Femme's on the poster!!
This isn't even necessarily a "all 13 Riders are there" thing, because others like Scissors and even the very significant Tiger aren't present either. I don't want to read too into a poster, but it would be odd to me for a character to be included when their only part in Ryuki is through the movie and 13 riders special, you know?

although considering Shouichi's own penchant for embarrassing puns, you might not have to use your imagination... Well, anyway, the point is I'm sure these subs will be anything but vexing in terms of quality!

Okay, that would be *awful*, but I also would also like to travel to the alternate universe where that happened just to see it. Honshin alone made me laugh so hard I cried a bit.
